In the Philippines, the LGBT Community has a long way to go before same-s3x marriage is legalized. LGBT couples won’t have the same rights and benefits that heteros3xuals have because of this. This includes the right to adopt and/or raise a child as acknowledged rightful parents.

Surprisingly, there are a few famous gay personalities and stars in the Philippines that have their own children. It probably was caused by experimentation when they were still young or it was really their choice. Whatever the reason is, these dads have provided love, care, and everything their child needs.
